Example: Test or Quiz

A test or quiz is data collected with a set plan in mind. This data can be used to plan instruction or check for mastery.

Example: The Qualitative Spelling Inventory (QSI)

The QSI is a measure whose results pinpoint the extent of mastery of specific skills. Teachers can use the data from this assessment to plan instruction in word knowledge. Teachers will know what specific spelling skills students have mastered and which skills they need further practice/instruction in. It is typically given in the fall, winter, and spring.

Example: EasyCBM Fluency

The EasyCBM  Fluency benchmark test occurs three times a year (fall, winter, spring), and serves as a predictor of how students will perform on the end of the year state criterion referenced test.

Example: Smarter Balance Assessment Consortium (SBAC)

The SBAC is a measure whose results are reported in reference to established criteria, such as standards, rather than by ranking student performance. This assessment is given yearly to all students in a specific grade or range of grades and compared nationally.

Example: Journal Entries

Journal entries allow for data to be collected without any specific planning. Of course, teachers should plan which types of informal assessments they would like to gather and when to gather the most useful data. These can be administered as-needed (daily, weekly, etc.).

Example: The Qualitative Spelling Inventory (QSI)

The Qualitative Spelling Inventory (QSI) consists of data collected within the instructional cycle (aka classroom assessment). It determines the word knowledge of students as is typically given three times a year (fall, winter, spring).

Example: End of Unit Math Tests

For example, a Fractions End of Topic Test is a measure that is crafted based on mutually agreed-upon decisions by educators for uniform use across multiple classrooms. Teachers collaborate together to build an assessment, administer it throughout a grade level or school, and then discuss the results for instructional purposes.

Example: NAEP (National Assessment of Educational Progress)

The NAEP is a test given to large numbers of students within and across districts and states. The results are compared to show proficiency in skills/standards and how students are performing academically across the nation. It is given every other year to 4th, 8th and 11th graders.

Example: Writing Task

A writing tasks are authentic, hands-on tasks where students produce original work that is generally interpreted with a rubric, checklist, or rating scale. These can be administered as needed to check for mastery and guide instruction.

Example: ACT (American College Testing)

The ACT is a test with results given as standard or scale scores so that performance of individual or groups of students can be compared. This assessment can show progress over time.

Example: Independent Study Project (Project Based Learning)

An Independent Study Project can be the sum of evidence for learning gathered at the culmination of a designated point in time, such as at the end of a unit or on an annual basis. Teachers can use this to assess mastery of a skill, standard, or unit of study.

Example: Short Quizzes

Short quizzes provide a collection of data as part of the instructional routine (aka instructional assessment). This is a quick way for teachers to check student learning for mastery. These types of assessments can be given on an as-needed basis (daily, weekly, etc.).
